Diploma in Supervision (New course due to commence in September 2010)
This course is for those who already have significant experience working as a practitioner within their field and want to further their career and qualify as a supervisor. As regulation approaches it is important for us all to have formal qualifications and recognition for our work. The course is for participants from different approaches to learn how to supervise both within their own theory and across other theoretical modalities. There will be ample opportunity within the course content to learn different theoretical ideas about supervision as well as to practice application along with getting support and feedback from tutors and peers. The course is for those who want to learn and develop within a stimulating environment with peers and tutors who have many years of expertise in working as supervisors and trainers.
A range of topics will be on offer including the supervisory relationship, working ethically, differing models of supervision, philosophy of supervision, responsibility and others. For those that want to, this course will help to prepare you to apply to BACP accreditation as a supervisor.
A Link Centre Diploma in Supervision will be awarded on successful completion of the course.
